‘A Concise Introduction to Existential Counselling’ is a superb addition to the
literature on existential counselling and
psychotherapy. Martin Adams provides

those who are new to it at the same time
as distilling key features in a way which
will be valuable for experienced
practitioners’ Meg Barker, Senior Lecturer in Psychology at the Open University

A Concise Introduction to Existential Counselling is just that: a brief and accessible pocket guide to the underlying theory & practice of the existential approach.
Addressing everything a new trainee needs to know and do in a way that is entirely accessible and jargon-free, this book:
– Provides a short history of the existential tradition
– Puts key concepts into contexts, showing how theory translates into practice
– Discusses issues in the therapeutic process
– Shows how to work effectively with whatever the client brings to the session
– Addresses the significance of existential thought in the wider world
This book will be the perfect companion to new trainees looking to embark on their path to thinking and practicing existentially.
Martin Adams is a practitioner and supervisor in private practice and a Lecturer at Regents College, and the New School of Psychotherapy both in London.
